I started going there for fabric to make some western shirts and became an addict. Took a quilting class call SW techniques that taught. 14 techniues in a 6 block wall hanging. Had never quilted before. At the end of the class I joined 4 of thrie BOMs. HAVE STARTED ALL BUT HAVE FINISHED NONE, found 1 class didn't make me good. I started working on one block at a time, doing 2 the same and 2 mirrored adding sashing and borders and had a SW baby quilt. I wish I had been taking pictures. I soon found when I went to craft shows I was the only one doing SW baby quilts. I quess when I have done all the blocks from the 4 Boms into baby quilts I will be brave enough to do the quits as they were meant to be. I find my coyote and my buffals are the first to go followd by the fetish bear. That's the bear with the heart arrow through the body of the bear. They keep telling me a the shop I need to stop buying as a sewer and start buying as a quilt.
